George Philip Peacock was an American luthier best known for building flamenco guitars and as the owner of Peacock Music, which served the stringed instrument community of San Francisco for four decades and was, until its closure after his death, the oldest instrument shop in the city. Peacock was a member of the Guild of American Luthiers and St. Philip's Choir, and was the last luthier in San Francisco upon his death in 2011.
“This work... was designed in the first instance to be a second edition of a Treatise on Algebra, published in 1830, and which has been long out of print; but I have found it necessary, in carrying out the principles developed in that work, to present the subject in so novel a form, that I could not with propriety consider it in any other light than as an entirely new treatise.”
